Ha Ha, love the dirt. It is awesome how well the 4 wheel drive works, with traction control off. Can believe the grip.
What is a r31?

Hey BazzaR....howzit ! Fellow South African here as well ...from Cape Town originally.

I can vouch for stuff being very expensive in South Africa. My cousin was into car audio and getting gear sent from the USA was ridiculous ! That's if it made it past customs or got stolen at the docks ! I think the importers are out to make money and the bad exchange rate 8-1 doesn't help.

European cars appear to be priced much better in SA than in OZ. Our 'luxury car tax' kils us ! When I mention Japanese cars to my SA relatives they say that's too expensive and yet they're driving around in BMW and Audis ! Go figure !

Keen to see some photos !

Dont know if this is the right place to post pics, but here they are.
Ignore the Focus in the background, and sorry 6 was a bit dirty

Know many other SA folks with MPS's mate? Seen many on the roads?

[BazzaR]

There are quite a few MPS's on the road. More 3's than 6.
The MPS didnt sell here that great, not badly but not as good as the Focus St or Golf GTI. plenty of them running around.
Thats why we have a problem with getting our MPS's tuned, as not many guys have alot of experience with them, also our fuel is not up to scratch all the time. Can only get 95 RON maximum!
